Our anticipated cost and allocated budget was for $4.3 million; <br /> however the low bid came in at $4.63 million. <br /> In addition to a shortfall of $330,000, we would like to include $170,000 for the <br /> construction and installation of a fuel dispensing station to be shared by both the Fire <br /> and Police Departments and $500,000 as a contingency for possible change orders. <br /> Therefore, our total requests for additional funds amounts to $1 million. Although this <br /> amount reflects a substantial increase over projected costs it will be necessary to <br /> facilitate the construction of the project. <br /> Should you have questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at your <br /> convenience. <br /> Sin rely, <br /> DAR YL OLIVEIRA <br /> Fire Chief <br /> X1,0 coLy <br /> DO:Ik ` <br /> Hmuoi'i County is an Equal Opporhnrity Provider and Employer. <br /> <br />
